Newelll's detachment saved the garrison, as its anmoontion was nearly expended.

L►eutenant-Colonel Adams had arrived by my livest accounts at Shujuvulpoor (10). I have already reported to your Lordship the reduction of the fort of Gudduck, by the detach ment with Brigadier-General Munro, and I have now the further smisfaction to transmit the copy of a letter fron► I\L3jor • Newsll, communicating the surrender of the• important fortress of Dummul (I On the 6111 inst., Brigadier-General Dovetail detached front Nai)ore, a corps under Lieute nant-Colonel M'Lend, to attack Gonpor Rao Suhidar, late an rffieer of that Government, who had collected a considerable Lindy of predatory troop, in the vicinity of" Gisbur, 36 miles S.

Copy of a 14POrrirom Major-General Sir W. G. Keir, K.M. T. to Lit atenant-Colauel Blacker, Quarter-Master-Gene ral, dated Camp Bennota, 20th January,'lBlB. SlR,—Atter I had the honour of addressing you on the 18th instant, intelligence was brought to me by my own hircarrahs, which was corrobo rated by different quarters, that several hundred Pmdarries had collected at Mosidapee (13), a vil lage about twenty miles from camp, which al - nominally' subject to Jeswinit Rao Bhow (14). had beeu given up by him to Fazil and had become a place of rendezvous for the va rious tribes of freebooters throughout the coun try, and a rallying point for the fugitives from the Hurrahs of Cheetoo, Kurreem K hao, and the other Pindarry Chieftains. Being anxious to avail my self of so tit vourable an opportohity of cutting off . a considerable body of tie enemy, and at the same time of chastising the persons sho bad dared to countenance and support them, I determined to move on Nitindapee with a light party, and the, next morniog formed a detachment on the march, consisting of tour squadrons of the 17th Dra goons, and eight hundred infantry, directing the remainder of the division to continue its route to wards Warree, on the road. to Purtaubghur.— The success of the enterprise depending entirely on the celerity of our movements, I pushed with the Dragoons to surround the villages till the in fantry could come up, hut the moment the advance got within sight of the place, the Pindarries rushed ~ u t in several directions, and fled with pre cipitation, 'nastied by the cavalry, who came up with, and killed about sixty of them. As soon as the infantry arrived, 1 took possession of the gates, and proceeded to the inner ghorry, the gate of which was opened after some hesitation on the part of the head man of the place, said to be an adopted son of Fazil Khali, who produced a pro tection, signed by Capt. Caulfield (15). The troops were immediately ordered to quit the town, but before this order could be carried into effect, Lregret to state that some irregulari ties occurred, which were not checked till after several severe examples had been made, and one Sepoy capitally punished. The inhabitants, how ever, sustained no loss, as immediate restitution was made of the articles taken from the houses by the troops, and nothing permitted to pass the gates of the village. A number of horses, camels, and a considerable quantity of property were found the place, but given up to Fazil Khan's adherents, on Captain Caulfield's protection be- . iug eroducid. Some tritons (16) and camels belong ing to the Pindarries, who fled front the town on our approach, were sent out into camp by the Pot,til (17) in the course of the night. I shall rejoin the remainder of the division to-morrow, at %Varree, and proceed the day after on my march to the southward, I have the honour to he, &c. W. GRANT KEIR, Major-General. P. S. On further inquiry, I find that near one hundred of the Pindatrivs were killed by the Dra goons. I am happy to say that we have suffered no loss, which I can only account for by the compkteness of the surprise, and by the gallantry of the Dragoons iu rushing forward, which pre. vented the enemy from rallying or Malting any re sistance.

Copy of a Dispatch from Lieut.-General Sir'Thomas Hislop to the Governor•Gelei al and Commander in Chief, dated camp at Samier, 3.st January, ISIS. MY LoRD,-1 have great pleasure in submitting for your L. , rdship's information the accompany ing copy of a dispatch from Lieutenant-Colonel detailing the particulars of his successful attack on the encampment of Cheeton, Pindarrah, on the evening of the 26th instant, at Kim node (IS.) Although the darkness of the night prevented Lieutenant-Colonel Heath from making this ope ration r complete as it otherwise undoubtedly would lave been, that circumstance does not' in the least detract from the praise which is due to the Lieutenant-Cgdonel, for the promptitude amt energy with which he conceived and executed the enterprize, which, as ‘‘ ell from the 1038 of men as from his baggage, must have very materially crippled the future attempts of she freebooter. I have, &c. THOS. HISLOP, Lieut.-Gen. Copy of a Report from Lientenant-Colonel Heath, commatid ing at Hiudiah ' to the Adjutant-G enera l o f th e A rmy , dated Camp at Hindiah, 2710 January, 1818. SJ have the honour to report, for the in formatiori of his Excellency the Commander in Chief, that in consequence of my having received intelligence at nine o'clock P. i. of the 25th in stant, of a hotly of one thousand five hundred Pindarries heing encamped at K•lnuode, at three P. M. on the former day, under the personal com mon! of Cheetoo, with Ranjun, his brother, Mahommed Punnah, Cheeroo's son, and Elie Bokst, Ranjun's son, Piadarry Chiefs, I imme diately prepared a'detachment as per margin, (19) and moved against them. 1 have great pleasure in informing you that I succeeded in surprising them at about eight o'clock P. as. the same evening, and taking possession of their encampme nt ; b ut f rom the darkness of the night, and a want of local information as w their direction of retreat, I regret to say that most of them escaped by dispersing in small bodies, leav ing in our possession two elephants, one hundred and ten camels, about one hundred and thirty horses of all descriptions, and other property. I beg leave to say, that I directed the pursuit, of them by the Silladar (20) horse under Lieute nant Ctixton i , which was kept lip for a consider able distance, but without effect. It was my intention to have left a company with a party of Silladar horse at Kunnode, but having obtained intelligence that Cheetoo, with five hundred horse, had passed Onchode, I did not carry my intention into effect. I have much satisfaction in reporting that only two Sepoys were slightly wounded of the Ist bat :alion 7th regiment Native Infantry. On the part of the enemy three were, killed, and I was given to understand by the Pot ails of the villages in the neighbourhood of Kunnode, that a great number of thern were carried off wounded. C. HEATH, Lieut.-Col. commanding at Hindiah. Copy of a Letter from Brigadier-General Pritzler, to Briga dier-General NI nnro, command!,lg the Reserve of the Army of the Deecftn, dated Cat:ip at 11 , 1alasunsky (21), 18th Jan. 1818. Siu,-1 have the honour to report to you, that soon after the division came to its ground yester day, I was informed that some of the I'cishwa's horse had approached the camp, and were driving away the cattle ; I therefore ordered out the ca valry picquets to their protection, and being after wards informed that the enemy was in very great numbers, and had formed within two miles of camp, 1 ordered Major Dawes to proceed with two squadrons and the galloper guns of the 7th light cavalry, and ordering the line under arms, I followed with the rest of the cavalry, to ascertain if it was practicable to bring the enemy to 'action. On arriving in sight of their troops, I rein forced the cavalry, retaining only one squadron in a situation midway between them and the line ; but finding that nothing would induce the enemy to approach us or stand their ground, I sent to recal the cavalry a little before sunset. Major Doveton reports, that with one squadron of the 22d Dragoons, and two of the 7th Light Cavalry, he ctarged and dispersed three very large bodies of the enemy ; and I feel satisfied that no troops could have done more, or been better ma naged, titan those under his command. From numerous accounts, I ant convinced that the enemy had 10,000 men in the.field, being the united bodies of horse of the Vinchoor Rajah, of part of Goklah's, and those of Gopaul Row ; and although Major Doveton estimates their loss at only 40 or f 0 men, the natives of the different villages represent that they admit • to have lost one hundred, and the same number of horses. The loss on our side was one man of the 7th Light Cavalry wounded, one horse of the 224 and one of the 7th Cavalry missing. The brigade of gall o p ers was di recte d b y M a j or Cleaveland, of the Artillery, who most have very much annoyed the enemy by their fire. 1 have, &,. T. PRITZLER, Brig. Gen. Extract from a Dispatch from Lieutenant-General Sir Tho mas Hislop, to the Governor-General and Commander-in- Chief, dated Head-Quarters, Army of the Deccan, Camp at the Bottom of the Sanuoal Ghaut, Feb. 8, 1818. In my dispatch of the 28th ult. I informed your Lordship, that Major Luskington's detachment was destined to cover the Bombay battering train in its junction with this force ; subsequent ar rangements, as described in nay letter of the 30th haVing rendered this co-operation non. ces. sarY. Major Litsbiugton rejoined me a t Lidoor (22) on the sth inst. the movement of b s detach- Ment having proved of the greatest service in counteracting a plan Made 14 Rim Deen (23), and Cheetoo, With other rebel leaders, for a com bined attack on the valuable convoy of treasure anti stores, which was moving tinder Major Sealy, to join Sir William Keir. Captain Gra'nt rejoined me on the 'morning of the 29rh nit. at Oogein, and was again detached front Indoor` on the 3d instant with a patty, noted . in , he margio (24), to attack the retnainder of Cheetoo' durrah, supposed to be near Bagley, abotit fifty miles south-east of Indoor. A lettei he addressed on the 4th inSt.., to the Quarter= Master-General spews to what extremity the once forwidable Piodarries are now retitle. d. Capta;tl Grant Nvill rejoin me on the Nctbudda about the 101 h inst. 13r igadivr•General Doveton marched from Nag pore the 22,1 ult. for Ellichpore, where he had expected to meet Nawaub Sellabnt Khan, who, yp,nr Lordship is advised, had hero requested to return to his own provinces. Lientenau., Colonel Deacon, however, having received my orders to advance again upon Poona, was desirous of hay• ing an effective division of the Nawaub's contin gent with him, on which the latter returned with the whole of his troops. My latest intelhgence from Lieutenant-Colonel Deacon states kiln to have made a forced march of thirty-five Miles to intercept'Gunput Rao (25), who had, how ever, moved upon Belt., and being fifty miles in advance of the Lieut.-Colonel, the Latter resumed his march to Ahmednuggur. Ou the route he re• ceived information of a party of Arabs, in the Peishwa's service, occupying the small fort of Newassa, a few miles off the road from Toka (26), in consequence of which he moved to attack them, hut ascertaining that they were about to aban• don the post, he , detached a body of irregular horse, under Lieutenant Sutherland, who suc ceeded in intercepting their retreat, and in de stroying about One hundred of them, on the 31st A letter, dated on the 2d instant, from Lieu tenant-Colonel Adams, at Dearajpoor, informs me that he has received the submission of the Pindarry Chief Nuuindar Khann, who, with his followers and dependents also, had delivered him. self up, and arrived in his camp. Extract from a Dispatch from Licutenant-Gener a Sir Thos. Hislop, to the Governor Gcneral and Commander-in-Chief, dated Camp at Sindwah, 43d February, 1818. I have much satisfaction in laying before your Lordship a copy of a letter (1011liFebtuary, 1818) received from Major General Sir William fat.tut Keir (27), reportin i ; the surrender of the &cr. mah (28) Bbye with a party of her followers to the force under his command, and the intended dispersion of the remainder of her troops. The rapidity of the Major-General's movements, in pursuance of the instructions he had received previously to my giving up the command of the troops;north of the Nerbudda, have enabled him to obtain an advantage of high importance to the public interests in Malwah, and I gladly avail niy• self of the present occasion to express to your Lordship how'greatlyl have felt myself indebted to the zeal, active co-operation, and judgment of Sir IVilliam Keir, during the whole period of my recent operations in Malwah. I have also the honour to forward herewith copies of two letters (dated 15th and 17th Fe. bruary) from Brigadier-General Sir John Mal. colm, the former detailing the surrender of Jes wunt Rao Bhow, and the latter that of the Pin. darry Chief Kurreem Khan ; and I beg leave to congratulate your Lordship on the whole of these events, which must conduce so materially and so immediately to the final settlement of the province. I arrived at this place yesterday, and having had the necessary communication with the Killedar, the tort (29) was this morning taken possession of by our troops. Extract of a Letter from Brigadier-General Sir John Mal• K.C.B. and K.L.S. to Lieutenant-General Sir Tho mas Hislop, Commander-in-Chief, dated Camp, at Nimbe.. Isaiah, 15th February, 1818. The expectation I entertained from the first, that Jeswunt Row Bliow would surrender, has not been disappointed. That Chief yesterday came into my camp, and gave himself up, avow ing that lie did so unconditionally, in the hope that his voluntary subtnision would recommeial him to the forgiveness and liberal consideration of his Sovereign, Dowlut Row Scinthah, and the British Government. I demanded from Jeswunt Row Bhow, the moment he arrived in camp, orders for the de livery to the British Government of the forts of Dealghur and Cumulnere. By a letter 1 have re. ceived from General Dunkin, who is advancing into Mewar, the former had surrendered previous to the arrival of the orders, but that for the eva cuation of Cumulnere will be in time, and may, 1 hope, prevent the necessity of an attack upon that fortress. The whole of this part of Mewar has been for some time subject to the depredations of Doled Khan, who, residing at this place, which is a jagheer of the family of Ameer Khan, has for eight years past laid the neighbouring country under contribution. To this Chief, who had, on the representation of Captain Caulfield, separated his interests from those of Jeswunt Row Bhow, a few days before the latter WAS attacked, (29) I sent a message, with an offer of service for hint and his followers ; and at the same time plainly informed him, that if he did not accept it, he must disband all his followers and - leave the country, otherwise be should be treated as a free. b'ooter. He first sent a party of horse, and after. wards come himself into my camp, and accepted the offer I made him of service. Both men and horses are of an excellent description. They will be useftil .recruits to the POOllOl auxiliary horse, and taking them into pay has already had the effect of giving confidence to the inhabitants of this quarter, who are returning to villages which, owing to these and other lawless freebooters (in the employ of Jeswunt Row Bhow), have been deserted tor years..
